She took me under her wing as a young adult, she looked out for me in my most needing times. Without her I would not be here.
Jen has always been the one to have a smile, she always helped more than asked for help. Jen had the most silly and fun personality, she encouraged my inner child personality. She also loved unconditionally, including her friends. She has helped me through some pretty low moments in life. Every time I came over she knew the key to my heart, FOOD! She and Kalvin would always let me have dinner with their family when I never had one of my own. She was the greatest friend anyone could possibly be blessed to have. I will miss her so much.
TO THE FAMILY YOU HAVE MY DEEPEST CONDOLENCE.SHE WILL BE MISSED

Jen inspired people to be their true selves. She taught me to not take life so seriously, to enjoy the little moments. To make a funny noise and laugh often because life’s better that way. She was of the only people to believe my side during a breakup. She was supportive, compassionate and devoted. She worked hard for Karisa to have a happy good life. I see her in the clouds and I feel her on the wind. She’d never let any of us cry like this, she’d never let anyone feel sadness or pain. She was selfless that way. Her soul was unlike anyone’s. I guess that’s why heaven needed her. You will be missed so much. Thoughts and prayers to her family.
She helped me so much in the couple years Iv known her! I loved our fishing trips and our bone fires! Playing ghost in the graveyard like a child all over again. Her and I had so many deep conversations about life our kids and our future goals! She has the best smile and always made me laugh! I will miss her dearly! Your family are in my thoughts! Love you all!
Dear, Cheryl, Bob, Tom, John, Anne, Jim and families, Larry and I are thinking of all of you and what you are going through. We did not know Jennifer, however, it seems she had a lot of family and friends who loved and cared for her deeply. Sharing memories with each other will keep her forever in your hearts. She will live on through her daughter and that relationship will be so precious. Take care. In friendship and sympathy, Larry and Karen
will always be in my memories peace in his grave
